Hollis Sigler (March 2, 1948 – March 29, 2001) was an American artist. She received several Arts Lifetime Achievement awards as both an artist and an educator, including the Distinguished Artist Award for Lifetime Achievement from the College Art Association in 2001. Sigler's mature artistic style was faux-naïve, featuring paintings whose subjects, furniture, and clothing set in doll-house type interiors and suburban landscapes were stand-ins for the implicitly female figure. In 1985, after Sigler was diagnosed with breast cancer, the subject matter began to change. She began to reflect on what was happening in her life by including quotations or phrases on the painting, showing her emotions and some facts about her disease.
This 31x23 poster comes from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago and was originally purchased in 1997. There are some minor imperfections around the edges and the color is as vibrant as day 1!!
